DALLAS - The Transportation Safety Administration caught more people trying to bring guns onto flights in 2018 than ever before.

TSA agents confiscated a record-setting 4,239 firearms from passengers’ carry-on bags at security checkpoints across the country. That’s an average of about 81 guns per week or 11 per day.

The majority of the guns were loaded and about 1/3 of them hand a round chambered, the agency said.

DFW airport was the second worst offender in 2018 with 219 firearm discoveries. It followed only Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson airport with 298. That number is more than double compared to the number of guns confiscated in Atlanta in 2017.

Houston’s Bush Intercontinental airport, the Austin-Bergstrom International airport and Dallas Love Field also made the list at No. 6, 8 and 9 respectively.

But that’s not all that agents found in people’s luggage. TSA shared pictures of smoke grenades, lighter fluid, fireworks, replica mortar shells, concealed knives and foil-wrapped scissors found in checked and carry-on bags.
